HC Deb 01 May 1967 vol 746 cc95-6
Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

On a point of order. In c. 1927 of the OFFICIAL REPORT for last Thursday there appears a point of order, if I may say so singularly well reasoned and garnished with a scholarly reference to Petronius, which is attributed to me. That attribution was fortified by a similar attribution of it to me by the hon. and learned Member for Montgomery (Mr. Hooson).

As I was not in the Chamber at the time, may I ask that a correction be made? By reason of my absence, I do not know to whom it should be attributed, but, from internal evidence, I suggest a search in the neighbourhood of St. Marylebone.

Mr. Speaker

I will see that the correction is made. I can assure the hon. Member that the Official Reporters are capable of doing the necessary political and physical research into finding out which right hon. Gentleman made the intervention.

I am sure that the House wishes me to comment on the fact that it is exceedingly rarely that the reporters make any mistakes. A correction will be made.
